The rotational inertia of an object depends upon the object's mass and the mass distribution about the axis of rotation. An Aussie Rules football is an example of an object called a spheroid.
Consider the situations when the spheroid is rotated either
a) about the x-axis
or
b) about the z-axis.
Is the following statement true or false?
STATEMENT
The rotational inertia of the spheroid for situations a) and b) are different.
